Trichomes and Stomatal study of Barleria cristata L. and Barleria prionitis L.
Abstract
Barleria cristata L. and Barleria prionitis L. are medicinal plants. These plants have been used in the indigenous system of medicine for a long time. Present work intends to utilize this data of Trichome and stomata to evaluate and standardize leaf drugs. The present research includes structure and dimensional details of upper and lower epidermis of the selected leaf drugs. The epidermal studies are carried out by scraping and peeling out particular epidermis. The Trichome, stomata, guard cells, subsidiary cells and epidermal cell are given along with dimensions. Trichome and stomata studies are useful in solving taxonomic problems and Pharmacognosy. They have significance in the identification of crude drugs from these plants. The types of trichomes are specific for a particular taxon. This data can be used to standardize a leaf drug. The studied characters related to trichomes in the present work are types and dimensions of trichome.
Keywords: Trichomes and Stomata, Barleria cristata L. and Barleria prionitis L.
